Reactor types

  • Argonaut : An Argonaut is a special type of training reactor.
  • AST-500 : a Russian nuclear reactor for heat generation and supply.
  • BHWR : Combination of CANDU and boiling water reactor
  • CANDU : Canadian heavy water - pressure tube reactor
  • PWR = pressurized water reactor: In a pressurized water reactor, the water in the primary circuit, which is used as a coolant, is under increased pressure.
  • European pressurized water reactor (EPR) : Type of nuclear reactor based on a pressurized water reactor
  • HDR = superheated steam boiling water reactor: A boiling water reactor with integrated nuclear superheating.
  • homogeneous : A reactor in which the fuel is present as a mixture with moderator or coolant.
  • HTR = high-temperature reactor: In the high-temperature reactor, the reactor core is cooled with the noble gas helium, which is heated when it flows through the ball bed (bed of spherical fuel elements).
  • HWR : A type of reactor that uses heavy water as a coolant and moderator.
  • HWCR = heavy water - pressure tubular reactor : the heavy water moderated pressure tube reactor moderated by heavy water. The fuel assemblies are located within numerous tubes in which the coolant (heavy water or carbon dioxide (CO 2 )) circulates.
  • KLT-40 : pressurized water reactor for ships
  • Convoy : A certain standardized design of pressurized water reactors. Reactors built in this way meet one of the world's highest safety standards for nuclear power plants.
  • LWR = light water reactor: generic term for PWR and BWR in which so-called light water is used as a coolant and moderator.
  • Magnox reactor : Magnesium Alloy Graphite Moderated Gas Cooled Uranium Oxide Reactor
  • MTR : A material test reactor with a very compact reactor core in order to achieve the greatest possible neutron flux density.
  • Swimming pool : The fuel elements are immersed in an open water basin so that interventions and experiments for research purposes and training are possible.
  • RBMK : A pressure tube reactor cooled with light water and moderated with graphitewith individual channels of Russian design.
  • SNR = fast sodium-cooled breeder reactor: Nuclear fission takes place with fast, unbraked neutrons.
  • SUR = Siemens teaching reactor : The research reactors used for teaching purposesactually have no temperature increaseeven in the crevice zone due to their low power, which is why systems for heat dissipation are unnecessary.
  • BWR = boiling water reactor: In a boiling water reactor, the coolant water in the reactor is converted into steam and used to drive the turbine directly.
  • TRIGA : A swimming pool-type research reactor in which safety is guaranteed by the laws of nature and not by engineering measures that could be bridged.
  • VVER : A pressurized water reactor of Russian design.
